Such a lovely flower. Not much interest in my garden at this time of year but will take the camera out and see what I can find.

Berkheya purpurea is  very interesting  -  I don't think many of us associate thistles with Africa!

[Brian Ellis]

Interesting indeed, but it has a tendency to wander and is now appearing in the lawn!

This is gracing our kitchen window sill at the moment.  Its a Crinodendrum Clerodendrum ugandense and a pretty little thing it is too.  Given to us by a generous forum member.

How lovely - but a Clerodendrum  I think? 

Clerodendrum ugandense Prain   - synonym of Rotheca myricoides subsp. myricoides

[Brian Ellis]

Quite right Maggi, my fault as I was thinking of snowdrops at the time

What an interesting flower structure - very perky!

Looking good in the garden today are the following.

An Anaphyllis which a friend gave us as a plug plant has done really well.

The Cyclamen hederifolium are just coming.

Foliage wise I just love this Polemonium and the Sedum close by.

I really hate the big Golden Rod so when Brian purchased a Solidago I was very suspicious, can't help but love this little thing though  The second picture has a 10p piece next to it for scale.

Also seen this morning a visitor we didn't recognise and had to look up. Sorry the picture isn't perfect the little so and so kept flying off.

Been out again today the day started dull but the cloud seems to be clearing now.

Clematis Arabella was bought earlier this year and is definitely a winner.
This Dianthus actually is called Gran's favourite and it is one of mine it's a pity you can't add scent to the forum.
The Erigeron has been flowering for months and is still looking good.
Rose Holcombe Honey is one of champion Rose grower Tony Bracegirdle's which he gave us last year.  Another one with a beautiful honey perfume hence the name.
Roscoea Red Gurkha is a very useful late flowerer in the scree garden.

Sorry I couldn't fit this in with the others.  A little Townsendia with a big name.

Townsendia alpigena var. caelilinensis
